example, in 1998 the hourly wages of women in the U. S. were 26% less than those
of men. The gap between male and female incomes varies with age. The gap between
the labor incomes of young women and young men varies. It’s also clear that jobs
in which women are concentrated pay less. The larger the number of workers who
are women in ran industry, the lower the average wages. Why do women earn less than men do Can the differences be explained by the fact that women are looked down upon If so, the government has to intervene(干预), to force the employers to pay equal wages to equal jobs.
